I am very anxious about visiting the dentist. I had been to any dentist in quite a number of years. Brighter Dental Care of Skillman have been very professional, pleasant and the overall experience was very positive. The exam, explanation of insurance vs. out of pocket was made crystal clear and even with lots of work ahead of me, I feel as though I came to an excellent choice by using Brighter Dental Care of Skillman, NJ.

My dental cleaning appointment was timely started and I felt cared for throughout. My cleaning hygienist made me comfortable while doing the job required for cleaning my teeth. My visit with the dentist was short and to the point for my current needs. Thanks.

Very pleasant staff & Dr.s at Brighter Dental! Going to the dentist can be a nervous experience, however the staff at Brighter dental are one of the friendliest and competent offices Ive ever been to. I would highly recommend them to our friends & neighbors. They do a great job and you don't even feel like you were at the dentist!

I wish I had found Brighter Dental Care of Skillman a long time ago. They are great, the office staff is polite and friendly. The dentists and dental staff are all nice and they explain what they are doing as they go along. I am having a lot of work done and it has been a pleasure the whole way. I have not had a problem with scheduling, and everything is clean as a whistle. I hear a friend of mine complain about their dentist, I refer them to Brighter Dental Care of Skillman.

Had a perfect visit. Only waited five minutes before being called in for the cleaning. I love the hygienist that I was assigned to. She was very accomodating with respect to the taking of x-rays which cause me a lot of discomfort. Everyone is very pleasant.

My son 5 had his first check up at this practice this week together with his sister 7 and was scared about going in. I had appointments at the same time for them and was worried about that at first but as it turned out it was without reason. The staff was very welcoming and patient and the assistants took time to get to know the kids. The check ups were done thoroughly but at the same time very non-intimidating for the kids. They didn't ask for me once and when we left they were already looking forward to another visit; really!

My children: a 5 year old boy and 7 year old girl there for the first time for check ups time this week and especially my 5 year old son was a bit scared. I had the appointments at the same time so that had me worried on how to be there for them too. But that turned out to be completely unnecessary. The assistants took time to talk to them and made it fun and I ended up in the waiting room while the kids went with them happily. On our way home my son even said he wanted to go again tomorrow and the next day.

I am someone who gets very anxious at the dentist but everyone from the dental hygienist to the x ray tech was patient and gentle, even though they were thorough. The dentist was wonderful and efficient and explained what was wrong and how to go about fixing it.
The receptionist was wonderful. There was a cancellation so she was able to schedule a cleaning in addition to my initial appointment and she called the day before to let me know how much of my insurance would cover the cost of my appointment.

My appointment was scheduled about 3 months prior. I received reminders via text and phone calls. When I arrived I was seen within 5 minutes. The hygienist was excellent and reviewed my past cleaning history with me. The cleaning was painless and friendly. I highly recommend this office to anyone looking for a new dentist.

When I was finally called in by the hygienist, it was 50 minutes past my appointment time. She did her best to get me done speedily, yet still thoroughly and I appreciated the way that she dealt with me, knowing that I was extremely annoyed at having to sit in the waiting room for over an hour.

One stop dentistry is terrific. I love the fact that patients can get everything from fillings to root canals in one location. The doctors and hygienic staff are great!!! Very friendly reception desk as well. Love this office!!!

The visit was a fun experience for my daughter who liked colors when her teeth was getting cleaned and the nursery rhymes by the nurse. And our appointment to was rescheduled for an earlier date based on our request and availability

I just switched to Brighter Dental. From the very first phone call, I knew how caring and helpful the folks there were. When I went in for my appointment, I could not have asked for better care! Thank you!!

The doctor and staff we friendly and explained what would happen at my next visit and the finanical aspects. My questions were all answered with directness and friendliness. I would recommend Brighter Dental to my friends.

Both of the hygienists in the Skillman office are the friendliest, gentlest and most professionals I have ever had the good fortune to be treated by. I seem them regularly and follow their advice, which is pretty much what my father used to tell me as a kid: Be true to your teeth and they'll never be false to you.

Great dental experience, I never have to wait longer than 5 minutes before being seen and usually in and out within 30 minutes.

I really appreciate the friendly and kind staff at BDC . Dr. Briggs was very patient and provided information regarding my treatment plan in a clear and detailed manner. This allowed me to understand what steps i need to take for future treatment. I appreciate when I'm given information that affects me so that i can make a well informed decisn for my healthy teeth and gums.

Office staff was very professional and accommodating. Was offered several scheduled times, and the office was willing to work on my time schedule to get all work done in a very reasonable amount of time. The staff is warm and welcoming - I would absolutely recommend this office

THE HYGIENIST WAS WONDERFUL, HOWEVER WHEN I CHOSE NOT TO HAVE A FULL MOUTH XRAY I WAS CONFRONTED BY THE DENTIST AND TOLD THAT I WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO MAKE ANOTHER CLEANING APPOINTMENT UNTIL I HAD XRAYS TAKEN. THIS APPEARED TO BE ONLY A RECOMMENDED PRACTICE BY THE DENTAL ASSOCIATION AND LOOKED LIKE TO ME AS A WAY TO GET MORE MONEY OUT OF MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I REALLY DID NOT LIKE THE CONFRONTATION WITH THE DENTIST AND HOW IT WAS HANDLED. I AM THINKING ABOUT LEAVING THE PRACTICE.

I was able to get an appointment time that fit my schedule, although if earlier morning times were available like 8am or if weekend appointments were available, that would be even better. Friendly staff and doctor who was helpful and informative.

I love Cathy the hygienist. She always makes me feel comfortable and relaxed. We always make small talk during the cleaning which makes the cleaning go quickly and my mind is off what she is actually doing. Such a sweet lady. My family and I have also had other procedures done there at the Skillman office and have been very satisfied with the results. Oh, and Dr Baum is the bomb with pulling teeth for my son.

My 4 year old son was in extreme pain and needed an emergency appt. I have never been there before and called at 4:30 they informed me that they close at 5 and to come right in. The staff was amazing from the girls at the front desk to the dental hygenist to the dentist. They went above and beyond to make my son feel comfortable. I was so pleased with brighter dental!!

4.5
I really liked everyone at the office. Especially the woman who saw me prior to the Dentist, although I liked him as well. The only thing I would have hoped for is that the Dentist that I saw on my first visit was doing my cavity fillings next week. I really liked him but our schedules dont match for this next appointment ( I guess he only works a few times a week/or limited hours). Now I am going to be doing this with someone I didnt meet. Either way this was a much better Dentist experience than the one I switched from and I feel comfortable in the care of your office due to the experince I had with the male dentist and woman "Nurse"-- (I am not sure what her tittle is.)

Xrays were uncomfortable and at times painful. I sat in the exam chair over 30 minutes waiting for someone to come back. At that point I was told all of those xrays did not come out and more had to be take. I was expecting to have an exam and cleaning ats Rob, just a little advice. You need to re-think getting the tuxes on your wedding day. Pick them up on Friday so you have some time to deal with any issues. You should not think that everything will be just fine. Things are out of your hands and you should be a little cautious for the sake of your wedding day. Please. This is important. visit but was told I had to make another appointment for the cleaning. This was very disappointing. I give this pkace 3 stars

The xray process was uncomfortable and at times painful. I sat in the exam chair for over a half an hour waiting for someone to return only to hear that the xrays did not come our. I was expecting to have an exam and cleaning at this visit but was told at the end of the exam that I had to schefule another appointment for the cleaning. I give the place 3 stars because the staff was nice. I was not thrilled with this visit for the reasons stated herein.

I would highly recommend Brighter Dental in Skillman. I had extensive dental work with implants. I would do it all again without hesitation. Dr. Singer and his staff are professional, knowledgable and enjoyable. They are always available to answer questions and kept me informed of the "next steps". My entire family uses this office for all our dental needs. The McDevitt family.

My experience was outstanding. The doctor had me come back because she was not satisfied with how a crown fit the first time. This showed me she cared about the quality of her work. I was impressed with her skill, work ethic and attention to detail.

The dentists were very friendly. The dentists were very focused. The nurses allowed us to call by their names.The nurses were very friendly too . Lastly the nurses gave great tips on taking care of our teeth.

I'm always seen within moments of arrival, all staff are friendly, helpful and professional. I'm completely at home! And with two root canal/crown procedures almost completed I have not had a single issue!

I absolutely 'hate' going to the dentist. I turn into a little kid and get really nervous even for just a check up/cleaning. Kathy/Hygienist (Skillman office)dispels my fears by making me fee comfortable and at ease. She is a joy to talk to.

My family has been using Brighter Dental Care for almost two years and we have all had very positive experiences. From basic cleanings to oral surgery, the staff including receptionist to doctors have been competent, thorough and engaging.

I give the Skillman NJ office a 5. My husband and two children go here as well and we are all quite satisfied with their services. No one likes a needle but they take good care of us when we are in need. Cathy the hygienist is wonderful.

4--service was excellent though the diagnosis I received for a tooth ache was very different from one practitioner to the next which was a bit confusing...although this looks like it will be resolved in a couple of weeks.

Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Kathy the hygienist is excellent, and Kelly (?) at the front desk is great too.
The only minor complaint: The cost...it is a little more here at Brighter Dental than a few other private practices I've been to in the past. But professionalism and friendliness casts those feelings aside.
Thank you.

This was my first visit and it was very positive. Office staff was friendly and professional. The dentist seemed to know exactly what he was about. I'd been to another dentist who was recommending all sorts of extra, expensive treatment to solve my problems. The recommendation I got was much more realistic.

Normally the experience is very good here. There seems to be a different dentist each time I go. Last visit the dentist was very rushed and took maybe 3 seconds to 'examine' me. As I was getting in my car to leave I saw her darting out of the door. That is not normal though. The reception staff is very nice. I like how they warn you how much a procedure is going to cost before administering it. I have the same hygienist every time and she is very nice and good at what she does.

I believe I saw the hygienist but, as I don't go to the office often (was 6 months since last appt) it would be nice to be told the person's name and role. I hope I did not offend by checking the hygienist questions here when maybe the person I saw was a doctor.

The Hygienist(Kathy) was excellent. When we schedule our appointments we make them with her. She makes you feel at ease and comfortable and when she needs to inform you that you need to 'brush' better it is always in a non-threatening, demoralizing way. She does it professionally and thoroughly.

I went in because of a small chip in my tooth and was told that because it was not deep enough, it qualified as a cosmetic procedure so insurance would not cover the cost of patching it. However, the doctor was very friendly and sympathetic and helped polish it down until it was comfortable. The chair was a massage chair and there was a television in the room as well, which made the experience more enjoyable.

5 Stars; I have been going here for many years now, have brought my husband and 11 year old son to the practice, and will continue to recommend Dr. Singer and his staff. Everyone is warm, knowledgeable, gentle and thorough. It's a terrific place to go for something that many of us do not look forward to.

My scheduled appts are fully covered by my insurance but due to scheduling error on the part of the practice I was required to pay a discounted charge for the visit. Would prefer that authorizations be followed to avoid additional charges.

This practice is extremely well organized and the doctors and other professionals are very easy to work with. My general discomfort with most dental procedures has been completely overcome by the people here. They are terrific.

The office hours are somewhat limiting but I have found a way to work it out with my schedule. I think Kathy is amazing. And in fact, almost everyone I deal with there has been professional, friendly, and with a good "bedside manner". I also appreciate that the office staff seems to respect my time as much as I respect theirs.

In my last appointment, I had a full set of x-rays, was seen by the doctor who made some recommendations for maintenance and then had maintenance done by the hygenist. I was in and out in an hour. Everyone was great.

Brighter Dental Care caught my early periodontal disease a few years ago which the last dentist I went to did not. They took care of my gums, restored to great dental health and started me on a dental plan just for me. Kathy is the best hygienist. She has always cared for my teeth and gums from my first visit. I will go to no other dental facility.

The appointment was well handled and efficient. My only issue is that I feel as though the doctor that I saw played practically no role in the appointment itself, which surprised me because previous appointments at other practices had the doctor playing an active role in all appointments, whether it was a simple cleaning or not. My hygienist was very helpful and efficient and did more work than the doctor herself. Although I'm sure the doctor was busy and I was a low priority because I was only in for a checkup, I still feel as though there could have been more of an effort put forth to actually know and learn about her patient, especially seeing as how it was my first time there.

I was very happy that after the retainer did not fit a new retainer was ordered. Though id did take several months and visits for this to occur, ultimately I received a new one which fit perfectly without any adjustments. I was not charged either for the 2nd retainer.

This appointment was for my 11 year old daughter, who has never experienced anything more than having her ckwaned.
She had to have two baby teeth extracted and was feeling very anxious. Everyone did everything they could to comfort her. She came away with a very positive exper

Always friendly and informative. Wait times are reasonable, and the office is spotless (as a dentist office should be!). My treatments are always explained clearly to me. The doctor and assistants take their time to make sure you are comfortable and show genuine concern for you during your treatments. I would highly reccommend!

I would rate it a 4 t a 5 mainly because I could not understand the first doctor I saw at all; really didn't know what he was trying to tell me. The rest of the staff was great. When I returned to see the Endodontist, everything was made clear to me.

Your survey needs to be more specific as I have seen three different doctors during my visits. All of my treatments so far have been positive, except for my last visit with Dr. Lyons (SP?) for Zoom whitening. I was not greeted warmly or asked how I was doing; she just introduced herself with her back to me. That would not have been such a big deal to me if the procedure, length and level of discomfort was explained in detail before it began and if the mouth piece was not rubbing so harshly on my upper gums. I have developed a sore because of this that is very annoying and painful. The other doctors and staff members have been very professional, informative and friendly. I have already recommended my sister Mary and brother Brian due to my previous visits, but if this had been my first visit, I probably would not return or recommend. Mary has already seen the Doctor and she was pleased. David

We're new to this office, and so far are very happy. Kids got their cleaning done without any trouble thanks to Kathy, the hygienist. She is very professional, and gentle. I wish the office had more flexible schedules, but regardless I'm glad that they had been very patient with my frequent schedule change request. Kelly at the front desk has been very helpful. I would not hesitate to give this office a 5 star if it opens on the weekends, and had a kids playroom.
